WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That was incredible!!!!! Holy smokes!! nice soft connection with no resistance to the bit. Complete rider to horse trust and communication! WAY. TO. GO!
Whenever the poll is not the highest point of the neck, the horse is overflexed. This horse's fifth vertebrae is the highest point. Ergo, by definition, this horse is overflexed.
Wow. Just saw this guy win Road to the Horse. He won the Wildcard Division then went on to win the entire competition. Awesome horseman and I would "slouch" every day on my horse if I could be even close to the horseman that he is! And I wish I could get my horse to "bridle up" up like this horse.
this is a cowboy show i really liked to watch for once. the horse had a normal snaffle bit on, and galloped wonderfully calm over it's back, nice and round! yes i think the head was behind the vertical (overflexed) sometimes (not sure how you call it in english, i mean that the horses face from ear to nose should be vertical/in a 90degree angle to the ground). But still very good, i wish everyone would ride his horses that nicely!
careful Candida. That horse is not overflexed. Also, three day event horses have a dressage component. Remember that when you are looking at collection or flexation.
I think your reply is a bit dramatic. The idea was to show he could collect up his horse's head whenever he wanted but if you noticed, he did give him his head to accelerate.
Incorrect, when the horse is broken over at the third vertebrate (bent in the middle of the neck, you can see the huge bulge from the break over) instead of breaking at the poll, the horse is considered hyperflexed. The horse is hyperflexed and has a gaping mouth, is hollow and strung out behind. When he frees the head to do the movements(other than cantering) the horse is working better. Hyperflexion is everywhere, people just accept it as ok because they are not educated,
Why on earth would you want to collect a horses head? The horse is clearly hyperflexed when cantering. A horse is taught collection from the hind to the front not the front with a gaping mouth and the hind end strung out behind.
Now there is a well rounded horse and fabulous horsemanship! Horse looks happy too! Whoever gives this a thumbs down is an idiot. I feel for all the horses who are confined to doing nothing more than mindless circles (that mean nothing to the horse) in an arena....being yanked on with their big ass double bridles...forced into some "posture" to avoid the pain of the metal in their mouth.
This was all extremely impressive, but would've been SO much more so if only the poor horse hadn't been TOTALLY overflexed. Did you notice when it was doing anything actually athletic (like walking through the brushpile) he had to let go of its face so it could succeed? Where did this "rollkeur" garbage take such hold? You'll never see headsets like that on polo ponies, or three day event horses, or foxhunters. . .anywhere your LIFE DEPENDS upon the horse getting you where you're going!
You want to see rulkur? Fine. Rullkur is when the neck is UP and chin touches CHEST. You should be experienced in all things horse before accusing one of rulkuring. And you know what is illegal here in the us. So OBVIOUSLY he is not rulkuring that horse.
Lol sure i don't spell it right and i know that. Too busy to look up the correct spelling atm. I don't give a damn what you think. That horse was trained to keep his head down just like most horses. You don't like it then take your bleeding heart elsewhere

This course is laid out very nicely! Excellent horse!
I was here!! I watched this live!

You have to love the commentators over the top enthusiasm "Oh and that's as good as anybody else!" 5:42

That was AMAZING.
"Really nice two point position here" all the English people start laughing. :) Aside from that though, great horsemanship!
Kinda freaking awesome!!!!

And was that Craig Cameron Narrating??
I love Horses ... So Strong and wonderfullll ....

Damn. Now this is riding.

Pretty bay cool reigners are awesome

Yes, it is a cute course! I'd like this horse for a hunter.

something about the way tha horse kept opening his mouth against the bit really bothered me. :-(
@dontworrybehappyjuju Sorry my sister put that comment ... I have no idea what she's talking about sooo yeah lol
I know this horse personally!
I don't think that's a saddlehorse folks. Or if he is i think he does show jumping english style
The horse was never rullkured
Thats not hyperflexed.. hyperflexed would be rollkuring
He's not to his chest if he was its called a rulkur.

well the horse was behind the vertical the entire time but thats none of my business *sips tea*
Jazmine Mitts I noticed that too... this is supposed to be western riding, not English

nope you wouldn't. This is a reiner and moves like a reiner .... totally different from a hunter.
but NOBODY cares when dressage horses are hyper flexed...

Wer so verdammt unsensibel und grob mit dem Pferdemaul umgeht sollte eigentlich sofort disqualifiziert werden!!! >:-(
I like the planks but a really long vid they should add interesting stuff like guns of maybe water guns and going super fast kinda boring😒
